Nick in Waconia, MN just moved in to a new home and discovered cracks in his foundation and a bowing basement wall. He was concerned about the value of his home and the potential problems these foundation issues could cause if left alone, so he contacted American Waterworks to have one of our foundation repair experts inspect his foundation. Our Design Specialist, Chad Johnson, determined that Nick’s best option was to repair his foundation using wall anchors. Chad explained the process and let Nick know that repairing his foundation will solve the problem in an efficient and cost-effective way, so Nick chose to move forward with having our system installed.

Our production team installed 14 wall anchors along the perimeter of Nick’s foundation walls in his basement. We drilled long metal rods through the brick walls and into the soil surrounding the home. Then we secured the rods with anchor plates on each end and tightened them. After the installation, the walls became stable and began to straighten. Our foundation repair products are guaranteed for a lifetime, so Nick is confident that he chose the right solution for his home!

Angelina S. of Waconia, MN had cracked and bowing foundation walls. In fact, on rainy days, water would come into her basement. She worked with American Waterworks for the repairs. Our Foreman, Juan Pena, and his crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain, CleanSpace Wall System Vapor Barrier, and our Wall Anchors to waterproof the basement and repair the foundation walls. Our WaterGuard is an interior drainage system that collects water seepage from basement walls. Our CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that prevents mold and humidity, while also saving money on energy costs. Lastly, our wall anchor system is a special anchor-rod installation that stabilizes foundation walls and allows the wall to straighten back to its normal position. To complete the entire installation, Juan and his team filled the open-floor gaps (that were broken out with a jackhammer) with river rock and an additional layer of concrete. Angelina was thrilled with the work and could not believe the beautiful transformation!

A homeowner in Waconia, MN, noticed their basement had a musty odor. Concerned by this smell, the homeowner decided to solve the issue. While reviewing multiple basement waterproofing companies, the homeowners came across American Waterworks. After seeing the 5-star reviews, the homeowners decided to sign up for their FREE estimate.  Once the estimate details were set, we sent one of our Design Specialists, Eric, to the home to inspect the status. Following his inspection, Eric suggested that the homeowners fully waterproof their basement and encapsulate their crawl space. Eric showed them multiple versions of this solution, and the homeowners picked the one best fit for their home. Once the plans were finalized, they were sent to the assigned crew. 

Our crew traveled to the home and began the project. First, the crew focused on installing the waterproofing products in the basement.  First, the crew installed the WaterGuard in the northern section of the basement. Once the WaterGuard was secured, the crew installed a feedline across the basement floor. Next, the crew installed the CleanSpace Wall System onto the entire north wall and sections of the west and east wall. Then, SprayFoam is injected into the upper section of the walls. After the basement waterproofing was completed, the crew moved on to installing CleanSpace into the crawl space. After all the products were successfully installed, the crew cleaned up their site and was able to leave the home. The homeowners were grateful for all the great work the crew completed. American Waterworks is happy to provide another homeowner peace of mind.

Job Stories From Waconia, MN
Odor Concerns in Waconia, MN

A homeowner in Waconia, MN, noticed a musty stench around their home. Determined to find the source of the stench, the homeowner began to investigate the home to find the source. After doing some investigation, the homeowner discovered the smell was coming from the basement. The homeowner had a gut feeling that there could be an issue in their basement, so they took steps to find a solution. After looking into several companies, the homeowner decided to work with the highly-rated American Waterworks. The homeowner then visited our website and signed up for their FREE estimate. Once the appointment details were set in stone, we sent one of our Design Specialist, Eric, to the home. After Eric completed his detailed inspection, he informed the homeowners that the cause of the smell was the basement. Eric proposed a variety of solutions, and the homeowners agreed with one of the versions. The agreed-upon solution was sent to the assigned crew and the project plans progressed. 

Our crew arrived at the home and began their work. The crew started by installing the WaterGuard around the perimeter of the northern section of the basement. The WaterGuard is a below-floor drain that resets in a bed of drainage stone on top of the foundation footing. The crew digs channels in the required sections to place the WaterGuard. In addition to the WaterGuard, a feedline was installed across the basement floor. The channels are then covered with rocks and cement to even out the floors to give a complete, smooth look. Since the new water system was in place, the crew could then install the SuperSump Plus. Unlike other sump pumps, the SuperSump Plus is engineered to help keep basements dry and healthy for long periods and during heavy water intrusion. The crew then shifted their focus to installing the CleanSpace on the entire north wall and sections of the east and west wall. CleanSpace is a waterproof plastic vapor barrier that prevents leaks and mold growth. On certain walls, CleanSpace is mechanically attached by plastic drilled-in fasteners. Finally, the crew applied SprayFoam near the top of all the basement walls. After all the basement waterproofing was complete, the crew then shifted their focus to the crawl space. The crew began by clearing all the debris from the crawlspace. Once the debris was cleared, the crew could lay the Drainage Matting on the crawl space floor. Finally, the crew installed CleanSpace on all the walls and floors in the crawlspace. 

Patio Lifted and Leveled in Waconia, MN

Nicole from Waconia, MN, gave us a call when she began to notice that a corner of her concrete patio was beginning to sink. Nicole was growing concerned because the sinking concrete had created several tripping hazards and she was afraid that, if left unchecked, the gaps would only worsen and create bigger problems down the road. Nicole cashed in on her FREE estimate with us and a Design Specialist from our Radon and Concrete division went out to the property to do an inspection. When he arrived, he informed Nicole that her concrete slab was sinking due to the soil beneath it settling. He suggested that she fix the problem soon before it had a chance to deteriorate further. He suggested that she invest in our PolyLevel solution to raise the concrete. 

After she agreed, our Foreman, Dylon, and his crew began the repairs. The crew began by strategically drilling holes into the concrete slab in question. Next, they injected the PolyLevel, which is an expanding polyurethane foam that is used to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize concrete surfaces. They finished the job by sealing the holes and any miscellaneous cracks with our NexusPro, a silicone-based sealant for joints and cracks. This sealant is specially formulated to provide long-lasting flexibility and to stand up to harsh weather conditions, making it the ideal sealant for any concrete cracks.

When the project was completed, Nicole was grateful that her sunken concrete worries were in the past!

Wall Anchors Stabilize Damaged Foundation in Waconia, MN

Nick A. in Waconia, MN had two foundation walls in his basement that were cracked and bowing inward. Nick was concerned about the underlying problems his damaged foundation could be causing. He wanted to avoid having to replace his entire foundation and while doing research he found that foundation repair is much more efficient and cost-effective option. He contacted American Waterworks to receive a FREE estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Chad Johnson, to his home to inspect his foundation and design a solution. Nick was pleased with Chad’s thorough evaluation and proposal, so he chose to move forward with the installation.

Our production team was able to permanently repair Nick’s foundation by installing 14 wall anchors along the two damaged walls. We dug small holes in the soil outside of the home that lined up with where the anchors would be installed. Then, small holes were drilled through the concrete block walls and into the soil. Long metal rods were inserted through the wall until they reached the holes in the yard. We placed anchors plates on both ends of the rods and tightened them. Our wall anchors are backed by a lifetime guarantee, so Nick is confident that his home is protected for the long-term and his peace of mind has been restored.
